Bye, bye Basjoo?

Hi all,
Last year I bought a Basjoo and a red Abyssinian to grow in pots outside in the Summer.
I dutifully brought them in and stored them in their pots in a cool dark place for the Winter.
Three weeks ago, I brought them upstairs, gave them a good watering, and put them in a sunny window. The red took off and already has a full new leaf. The Basjoo looks to be slowly drying out from the top down. I took it out of the sunny window and placed it where it would get less intense sunshine. That doesn't seem to be helping.

I would love to hear suggestions from the experienced growers here on how I should proceed.

Thanks in advance.

If you do not see any activity pull the plant and inspect it.:)
